product review: herbal essences hello hydration moisturizing conditioner

  • by Remi Powell

Why read review after review when you can just read one? We’ve “combed” the web to get the verdict on Herbal Essence’s Hello Hyrdation Moistrizing Conditioner.

 

Okay, it’s probably safe to say that most people are familiar with the Herbal Essences brand and products but lately there’s been talk about its Hello Hydration Moisturizing Conditioner, which claims to be über moisturizing and hydrating for any dry hair. Herbal Essences insists that the conditioner will leave your hair silky smooth and manageable. But is it good for our hair? Let’s take a look.

 

main takeaway

Here’s the verdict: this product is a definite winner! A lot of users were hesitant to give Herbal Essences Hello Hydration a try because they assumed it was strictly for hair types below 3A, but reviewers gave in and said it smells absolutely amazing and they can’t get enough of it. The conditioner is very affordable. It gives incredible slip and it seems to be great detangler. Some people leave it in and others rinse it out (as directed). On the other hand, there were some reviewers that didn’t get these results, saying that it stripped their hair and made it dry, or it didn’t change anything at all.

Nevertheless, the positive feedback outshines the negative, so I definitely recommend this product. I used the Herbal Essences Hello Hydration 2-in-1 Shampoo and Conditioner and had zero complaints. I love the ease of access; you can literally find it anywhere and you can buy the whole Hello Hydration collection!

Pros:

  • Inexpensive.
  • Comes in several sizes (travel size, 12oz bottle, 23.7oz bottle, and 33.8oz. bottle)
  • Found almost anywhere.
  • The Hawaiian coconut and orchid scent is sublime!
  • The packaging is charming.
  • Great for co-washing.
  • Gives amazing slip.

Cons:

  • Doesn’t work for everyone.
  • Contains alcohol and other chemicals. See ingredients below.
  • Contains fragrances.

 

what the manufacturer says

My moisturizing hair conditioner is deliciously hydrating.

Why not give your dry hair a drink? I say you can never get too much of a good thing. So say “hello” to a deep dousing of lush hydration with my rich formula. I’ve got moisturizers and a fusion of Hawaiian coconut and orchid. Drink up and replenish much needed moisture. My hair conditioner will reunite you with manageable, silky, smooth hair.

what bloggers say

I think the Hello Hydration might actually be quite moisturizing. It’s definitely a good conditioner for people who seek moisture and don’t mind products that aren’t 100% natural. The conditioner cleansed my hair, and removed the little product buildup I had. So, yeah, this is pretty good as a cleanser too.”

– Sammy with the Big Hair

This product gets two thumbs WAY up. I noticed how moisturized and soft my hair was. No crunchiness, no need to slater on some cream; just pure hydration. I’ve co-washed with this stuff at least 3 times this week and I’m already noticing a difference in my hair. It’s moisturized and all shiny.

– Natural Fab

 

This is the first time I am trying out Herbal Essences, and I love the Hello Hydration range.  It definitely leaves my hair more controllable and frizz-free without drying out my scalp.  Love the sweet coconuty smell that it leaves behind on my hair.  Overall, a good, inexpensive option for the dry-haired girl looking for a gentle shampoo :D.

what the vloggers say

 

what the commenters say

It makes my hair almost inhumanly soft, glossy, completely frizz free, and takes out tangles like nobody’s business. Plus, it smells incredible and the smell lingers.

– Elve

I use this as one of my conditioners. This product provides great slip for when I’m de-tangling in the shower! It really does make my curls pop.

– BargainChica

My hair is curly, and hard to manage. I used this product for 1 month and during this month my hair smelled, looked and felt better than it has in years. The formula left my hair light, and grease free which in my case is hard to do.

– Karyndotnu
